In uniform circular motion (circular motion at same speed), (tangential velocity)^2/radius = acceleration towards the center of the circle (centripetal acceleration) 
<span>Also, radius is the distance to the center of the circle (track). </span>
<span>So, in your case, 15.4m/s^2 = (30.0m/s)^2/(radius) </span>
<span>radius = (900.m^2/s^2) / (15.4m/s^2) </span>
<span>radius = 58.4m</span>

Answer:

58.44m

Step-by-step explanation:

Centripetal acceleration in a circular path is defined as follows:

a_{c}=\frac{v^2}{r}

Where a_{c} is the centripetal acceleration,  v is the tangential speed, and  r is the radius of the circle.

Since we need to know the distance between the car and the center of the track, we are looking for the radius of the circular track  r, so we clear for it in the last equation:

r=\frac{v^2}{a_{c}}

And since we have the following information:

centripetal acceleration: a_{c}=15.4m/s^2

tangential speed: v=30m/s

We substitute these values in the equation to find the radius:

r=\frac{v^2}{a_{c}}=\frac{(30m/s)^2}{15.4m/s^2}=\frac{900m^2/s^2}{15.4m/s^2}=58.44m

The distance between the car and the center of the track is 58.44m

15. She bought:

3 jeans, $20 each

1 pants, $18

You find the total: 3(20) + 1(18) = $78 then you apply the discount

Since this is between 50-100, you use the 38% discount (decimal form: 0.38)

38% is being subtracted from your total, so you can do this:

100% - 38% = 62%      This is your total after the discount

78(0.62) = 48.36   Your answer is C

18. C    Liabilities impacts you negatively, since you have debts to pay off
